Team Common Planner all day all year. I love B6 size…it’s my happy place. But more than that it’s pretty much identical functional space to the Cousin when you remove all the non-functional space in the cousin so I’m getting the same real estate in an easier to carry size. But for me more than that it’s the clean layout. I love the simplicity of the CP and the aesthetic. It’s just a beautiful blank slate of functional space. I have the A5 undated on preorder too for another purpose - because it’s not just the B6 size I love…it’s the whole package.

I have and love both the Cousin and the Common Planner, and like them both for all the same reasons. In the end, for me the Cousin wins out, in that I love the paper, and I'd rather have more space than less, for days that I need it all. I'd rather have a bit of blank space then to run out. But, I still dabble in the Common Planner, so who knows really? Maybe I'll just use both as the mood strikes? Ugh!!! LOL.

Team common planner!!! The dated daily pages in my cousin were what kept me from it being “perfect”. I never used b6 before and I love it. Now I’m at the dilemma of what if I run out of notes pages. I think I will just buy the sterling ink notebook and continue the page numbering. I LOVE the freedom of Freeform from my bullet journal days and the structure of the dated front. It’s exactly what I needed.

My first “real” planner was the cousin, I struggled with the blank pages and felt like I was wasting the planner if I didn’t use every 👏🏽single 👏🏽 page. But since purchasing the Sterling Ink common planner I feel like I am able to plan the way I want to. I don’t feel bad if the page is partially empty so I’ve come to conclusion that B6 is where it is at (at least for my planning style). But I do miss my cousin….see, us planners are never really happy but still love what we are using, it’s so funny 😆

I'm stuck, same as you, between the HoCo and the Common Planner! I was going to use the Common Planner as my health planner, and the HoCo as my day-to-day, but I might switch it... I use the 24 hours in the HoCo document when I'm awake and asleep, when I take my meds, and I journal in the daily pages nightly... So in march I might switch it up. Try a month in reverse. I definitely feel like I don't need both, but since I HAVE both and I love B6... and A5... I'm going to do my best. I totally get it!

great video! I use a Cousin for work - The week's section for scheduling and tasks with the dailies for meeting notes. I also use an A5 rings for home. Both share key appointments which impact each other - ie doctor appointments during work hours. I'm forever looking at and have owned the Weeks. It's just a little bit small for me. But I love it. The best Week's use was as a nutrition journal. But I didn't keep it up.

I love using my B6 Disc planner with diyfish printables, (and made some other printables for myself) , I love that i can switch up to any style (horizontal vertical or blocked ) if i want something different. The reason i like the discbound style is the ease of moving things around in my planner , and being able to add more or remove some sections.

I love the A6 daily due to the time line. I work M-F now so I really don’t need a daily so that is my dilemma. I can only have one and I use it as a wallet also. Can’t wrap my head around using more than one

I now work in a cousin and a regular size weeks. The cousin is my catch all for work and personal with daily pages for some details/time blocks and journaling. The weeks is now my health, wellness planner with habit & meal tracking. It is nice to have the two sizes because I can flip flop around a bit. I have a Coach notebook cover for the Cousin and just a simple clear cover with pen loop for the weeks. I would love to invest in a nicer cover if the weeks sticks around. It is too early to tell!

Thank you for sharing your planners with us, I definitely appreciate it! I'm currently using my EC daily duo in a5 and the a5 Hobonichi cousin by Aura Estelle x Annie Plans. I love using both of these as I also like to keep consistent in both planners. I've been using my EC daily for appointments (both work and personal) and other daily activities. I use my Hobonichi cousin for journaling. I use my stickers to add a bit of flair to them and washi tape because my doodles don't quite give it the "oomph" I need on my pages. I think that next year I might only use a Hobonichi for everthing as it looks like it can handle all of my appointments, notes, journaling and doodles, but we shall see.

Julie, I'm neurodivergent and have been struggling a LOT with my routines recently. I've decided I'm going to use your habit tracking layout (from the Weeks notes section) as a guide and use it for my am/pm routines and habits! I've been annoyed trying to squish even my habits into the weekly layout, feeling like I can only include a little bit of my routine to save space, and this seems like such a great solution. It'll give me more room for detailed to-dos and notes, while letting me really break down my routines and habits into their smallest components (which I desperately need). I may even get a dot marker, as I've wanted one for months now :) thanks so much for sharing that page.

I currently have the EC Duo and want a weekly hourly, but with a chance to have an all in one system. But i dont need or want a 8x11 size. I would rather have something smaller like the B6. I'm going back and forth with getting the Cousin or the Sterling for what I've stated above. But then again, I'm also holding out for the new releases of EC. Being an adult is hard when there are too many planner choices. 😫

Yes, I love the B6 size but I tend to think about completing the full year and which will be better for archiving. Hobonichi hands down for me due to the quality. The common place planner is so flimsy, I just could not put my time and effort into it. I love the Hobonichi brand and the company. I use their books for journaling and planning! Enjoy your planners!
